        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }
    kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = '1.8'
    }
}

dependencies {

    implementation 'androidx.core:core-ktx:1.7.0'
    implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.5.0'
    implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.6.0'
    implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:2.1.4'
}

These two entered

android.useAndroidX=true android.enableJetifier=true

I paste the image in the question kindly see it. I am looking forward for the solution, if someone will help, it will be appreciated.

Solution

It imported ContextCompat fine. Notice there is no error on the import line.

You are not supposed to instantiate ContextCompat like that. It has a private constructor and only static methods so it is similar to a Kotlin object.

To use ContextCompat, you call the function directly on ContextCompat. For example, to use its getColor function, you would do:

val myColor = ContextCompat.getColor(this, R.id.my_color)

The first argument is the Context. When in an Activity class, you can pass this as the first argument. In a Fragment, you would pass requireContext() as the first argument.
